Epiphone Les Paul Standard Plus Top Electric Guitar Review :: Electric Guitar Reviews

Les Paul changed the world with his ‘Log’ prototype using Epiphone body parts and a solid piece of wood. His lasting legacy and standard for all solid body guitars to come.
Epiphone’s Les Paul Standard Plain Top electric guitar gives you the gorgeous looks and tone of a Gibson Les Paul at a more accessible price. Two Alnico Classic humbucking pickups deliver big slabs of the fat warm tones; transcontinental sustain; and deep, soulful distortion that made this guitar famous. This guitar is sturdy, light weight (compared to other Les Pauls such as the Gibson), smooth look and feel (thinner neck, and lighter less dense wood), and sounds absolutely perfect. Crafted with a solid mahogany body and flamed maple veneer over carved top, set mahogany neck with a slim-taper neck profile, 22-fret rosewood fingerboard, cream body and fingerboard binding, and chrome hardware. The set mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard provide the familiar feel and fast action that LP players love so dearly. Neck and body binding and trapezoid inlays provide the classic look that has graced stages the world over for decades. If you wanna play folk, blues, hard rock, or metal, this guitar can do it all.
